This is the undisputed king of all beam cannons in FreeSpace 2, beating out the MjolnirBeam and BFGreen. Four of these cannons can easily destroy a GTD Hecate in a single shot (Bearbaiting).


Here's a little note for new pilots playing the game on Medium difficulty or higher: the BFRed has the exact same recharge time as the LRed, which means that, on the highest difficulty levels, there is no recharge time at all; it will charge, fire, then immediately charge and fire again. On lower difficulties, the recharge time is increased a little across all beams, so there will be a pause of about five seconds while the BFRed recharges.
